![]() Expect shredders and newbies mixing it up, so use situational awareness and have fun- That's why we go, right? Overall though the crowds were generally respectful of each other and I didn't witness any issues between folks that would be cause for concern. ![]() I would expect this at any So Cal ski area though, it's par for the course given the region. Traffic on the slopes was busy during our time there and I expected the usual mix of higher density boarders to a lower number of skiers with the attendant issues. My wife and other son felt that the first time lessons for snowboarding were taught at a level or so above their non-experience and they could have benefited from a different teaching style. Regarding the lessons, there was some confusion with one son's full day skiing lesson and he was placed in a half day, that got sorted but he wasn't able to get any learning drills up on the lift accessed slopes which he was told that he would. A shout out to Alyssa (sp?) at the children's learning center who exemplified customer service, helping us over an issue with some gear. Generally the lifties were friendly and did their job, likewise with the counter help at the ticket booth, lot attendants and elsewhere. The main road is a 2 lane rural road, so there will be traffic jams at the start and end of the day (8:30-4). Get here real early on high traffic days and you'll be blessed with a parking spot at either resort, otherwise you'll have to park at the East to take the shuttle over to the West. The only lift to be problematic that I saw was the one that serviced Easy Street. The lifts were a bit on the older side and my youngest wondered why many of them had no safety bars. Snow conditions were good given the fact that MH is a busy place and in a challenging climate area (So Cal).
